Event Description
Dive into the drama behind the scenes of Hollywood’s first blockbuster.
FADE IN: The open ocean, 1974. Filming is delayed…again. The lead actors – theatre veteran Robert Shaw and young Hollywood hotshots Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider – are crammed into a too-small boat, entirely at the mercy of foul weather and a faulty mechanical co-star. Alcohol flows, egos collide, and tempers flare on a chaotic voyage that just might lead to cinematic magic…if it doesn’t sink them all.
A smash hit both in the West End and on Broadway, The Shark is Broken celebrates cinema history and looks at the choppy waters behind Hollywood’s first blockbuster.
95 minutes (no intermission).
Age guide: 14+
